RCN, Phillies need your help

At The Morning Call, we regularly hear from frustrated RCN Cable customers about not being able to watch Phillies games that appear on The Comcast Network.

WIth your help, that could change this season.

RCN confirmed to one of my colleagues, Stephanie Sigafoos, that it put in a channel request to add The Comcast Network, and will put it in its lineup depending on how many people contact them to request the channel.

The representative from RCN that talked to Steph said it's imperative that you contact RCN in the next 60 days.

To contact RCN, call 1-866-603-4474.

Here is the list of spring training games on Comcast. Of the eight games that it will televise, five of them will be on The Comcast Network and only three will be on Comcast SportsNet.

That we don't get The Comcast Network has been my biggest pet peeve for years! Service Electric offers it and I would switch in a minute but we can't get SEC where we live. Please, everyone call RCN and request that it add The Comcast Network.

Sorry to Direct TV Customers, but this has nothing to do with your service. This affects people who pay for RCN Cable. I happen to get RCN, as do many others in the Lehigh Valley, but it has nothing to do with your Direct TV service.

YES Network is available on FIOS. I am not certain about the actual games, though. So is SportsChannel New York (remember the Mets?) and WGN Chicago (Cubs and White Sox). Of course, you can buy MLB Extra Innings everywhere and solve all problems (except the Phillies) because the YES games ar4e on MLB extra innings.

I live in the country and comcast wants 7 grand to run a line to my house. If I had an address ,say in virginia, could I sign up for mlb on my computer and then watch it anywhere? I am very tired of being blacked out from Phillies games
